The Atlantico is in an excellent location only three blocks from Copacabana Beach however it was just a basic hotel. The staff were very unhelpful and the waiters at breakfast dont even say a word! An average hotel, i wouldnt say four star but that's the grade it's been given. As we only stayed two nights it was manageble but... more

points that I think worth to mention: 1)there was a bad smell in the air near the pool and on the 13rd floor that I could not bear.In fact it was from sewerage system of the neighborhood . 2) internet is very expensive! 3)bathroom is very old. more

i don´t recommend it at all. the pool was broken and they never told it during the reservation. internet connection costed R$ 30 per hour. the only good thing about this hotel is the location, in front of the subway station. i think copacabana has better options. more

We stayed there for 5 nights arriving on Christmas Day. Don't be putt off the refur going on in the entrance hall. Reception staff and porters are very helpful. Our room was really alright. Yes, the decor was a bit dated (70s style), but hey. The bed was comfy, the mini bar excellent and the views from our window unbeatable!... more

We stayed here for one night as our flights got changed by the airline and when booking our previous hotel (Porto Bay Rio) was unable to accommodate us. It’s a large hotel and during our stay a lot of work was going on at the lower levels - entrance and restaurant particularly. This gave a poor first impression of the... more

I stayed here with my girlfriend for 9 days over Christmas 2008. It's a decent hotel but it's not really in the luxury category. On the plus side, it's affordable and it's in a reasonable location about 10 minutes' walk from Copacabana Beach. If you bear that in mind and get a discount deal through an online booking agent, it's... more

I have mixed feelings about the Atlantico. Booked a 2 night stay. Upon arrival, I was told that the hotel was overbooked and that they had rebooked me at the Majestic Hotel about 5 blocks away for 1 night. They did pick up the cost of the transfer to and from the other hotel, but the Majestic was a relic... more

This hotel was in a good location. The rooms were a little shabby, but clean. The decor was from the 1970's. The staff spoke perfect english. In fact they spoke better english than anyone else on my trip. They made great affordable reccomendations on where to eat. All in all a great hotel and a better staff. more

The minute we got into our hotel room, I told my fiance that we move out immediately, but we actually ended up staying there for 5 nights out of 7 that we spent at Rio and every day I liked our little hotel more and more!!! It does have a lot of charm! A piece of advice: don't book it... more
